comments

I have put the blog to no comments for a while. I'm trying to lose the idea of readers since that is something i find terrifically inhibiting. Not the notion that someone's reading or will read me - because really, why write, if not for a reader? but the idea of readers as knowable people who have and express definite tastes and interests. All that is going to do for me right now is affect the kinds of things I write about. Don't need it. So, maybe later.

I did read a blog yesterday that had no comments enabled, and I liked it: it seemed private, yet not exclusionary. A person carrying on a clear and rational conversation with her own thoughts. And not full of shit, either.
